How co-op works
Up to four online Terminators choose complementary classes and clear multiplayer missions through confined Space Hulks. They cover corridors, hold chokepoints, combine firearms, melee, and psychic abilities, revive squadmates, and earn class skills and weapons; Special Missions randomize objectives and enemy spawns within each chapter.
About this game
Space Hulk: Deathwing drops squads of Space Marine Terminators into the claustrophobic corridors of abandoned starships infested with deadly Genestealers. Based on the cult classic board game, this first-person shooter casts players as heavily armored warriors wielding storm bolters, power fists, and psychic powers against swarms of alien horrors. The Enhanced Edition adds deeper progression, richer customization, and a fully fleshed-out online co-op mode built for squad play.

Teamwork revolves around overlapping fields of fire, managing ammo reserves, and calling out enemy spawns before the swarm overwhelms your position. Each Terminator can specialize in roles like heavy weapons support, close-quarters melee, or psychic assault, and success depends on defending choke points and reviving downed squadmates. The slow, deliberate movement and devastating firepower capture the weight of Terminator armor.
Online co-op supports coordinated squads tackling missions that demand constant communication and tactical positioning. Sessions blend methodical room clearing with sudden swarm ambushes, rewarding teams that stick together and coordinate their loadouts across multiple objectives.
